Idea for IL2/SOW

[sunshadow]

Yey, autopilot helps. But maybe it's possible to make a little strategy map (like warbirds) where you plan strikes on other airbases/industry to reduce enemy's ressources.

Just use the Full Mission Builder to set up any scenario you want. Once you have set it up, save it, and then hit the Play option in the File drop-down. The scenario will play through and you can shift aircraft views using the appropriate keys. You can watch the target too, using the camera object. The FMB is definitely the place to go.

Or, #2, fly the mission and make an .ntrk of it. Afterwards view the track using the appropriate view settings.

SoW:BoB was at it's inception, intrended to allow the player two campaign paths:

historic
dynamic

Historic is what you think- events happen as historically accurate

Dynamic was to be player-effected, as in: where do you concentrate your efforts? Attack RAF airfields? Shipping? Attack population centers? Big Wing, Little Wing?

I do not know if this is still intended but that covers the strategy aspect

This is a good way to watch your missions, but that's no strategy part. The feature described by Former_Older is what I am looking for. I hope that it will be included!

btw what's the new release date for sow?
